The H5studio is the model where the components stopped being compromises, carrying 19.4mm microphone capsules and the preamp design from the F-series field recorders.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003ch3\u003eThe microphones\u003c\/h3\u003e \u003cp\u003eThe capsules measure 19.4mm. Capsule area drives a great deal of how a small recorder sounds, and the extra size shows up as a wider frequency response, a larger dynamic range and a 140 dB maximum SPL rating. That last figure is the practical one, because it means the recorder can sit close to a drum kit or a guitar cabinet without the microphone giving up before the performance does.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003ch3\u003eThe preamps and 32-bit float\u003c\/h3\u003e \u003cp\u003eThe inputs use Zoom's F-series preamps at -127 dBu EIN. Paired with dual AD converters and 32-bit float, they cover a 132 dB dynamic range, wide enough to hold a shouted line and quiet room tone in the same file without noise or distortion. The H5studio also keeps dedicated gain knobs, which matters more than it first sounds. Recording in 32-bit float means you never clip but always do a level pass afterwards. Recording in 16 or 24-bit with a real gain knob means the file is finished the moment you stop. This recorder lets you choose per job rather than committing to one workflow.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003ch3\u003eFour tracks and a mix\u003c\/h3\u003e \u003cp\u003eThe H5studio captures up to six tracks at once, four individual tracks plus a stereo mix, and plays back four. Sample rates run from 44.1 kHz through to 192 kHz. Four inputs is enough for a two person interview on lavaliers, a rehearsal with a stereo pair and a couple of spot mics, or a solo session using the built-in capsule alongside an instrument feed.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003ch3\u003eAround the unit\u003c\/h3\u003e \u003cp\u003eThe fitted XYH-5s is a 90 degree XY stereo microphone. There is a LINE OUT, a headphone jack and a built-in speaker for checking a take on the spot, plus a 2 inch full colour LCD at 320 x 240 for metering and file handling. Recording goes to microSD card, power comes from 4 AA batteries or the ZOOM AD-17 adapter, and the ZOOM BTA-1 wireless adapter adds remote control.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Zoom","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":49101172637952,"sku":"H5STUDIO","price":472.48,"currency_code":"SGD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0611\/0871\/5776\/files\/zoom-h5studio-01.jpg?v=1785436066","url":"https:\/\/musicshop.sg\/products\/zoom-h5studio-4-track-handy-recorder-with-32-bit-float-and-19-4mm-mics","provider":"Musicshop","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
